Pandora updated its Android app Thursday, completely overhauling the app’s look to make it easier to navigate, and adding a number of new features.

Launched on Android in 2009, the new version of the app offers updated song history – allowing you to review, rate, and bookmark previously played tracks. The updated version of the app also revamps how you explore music, letting you see full song lyrics for tracks you’re listening to, artists’ bios, and similar artists and tracks.

Much like other app updates, the newest version of Pandora also brings with it some bug fixes and enhancements.

In May, Pandora announced that it surpassed 150 million registered users, increasing 50% since the beginning of the 2012. At the time 52 million of those users were actively using the service, streaming over 1.06 billion hours of music during April 2012 alone – an 87% increase over what the service saw at the same time in 2011.

Seventy percent of that music was being listened to on mobile devices.

The updated version of Pandora for Android is available now from Google Play.
